I thought about super sizing a triple zip pouch for my partner in the Modern Scrappy Bits swap so I did. I Upped the size so that I could box the corners and I made it a bit wider as well. I pieced a bunch of scraps of this and that (Ruby, Vintage Modern, Reunion, and the text print is a scrap from a line called Fresh Flowers. The main lining is a scrap of text fabric from the Word Play line. I did a quilt as you go method so I was able to use a bunch of different quilting. The sides are matchstick straight lines. The front panel has vertical quilting and the back has horizontal quilting. Just for fun. I added a charm on the top zip for a zipper pull. All in all it is a few inches taller and a few inches wider.
Stuffed with scrap goodness and a few extras for fun. If you are going to have 3 pockets, you have to have something in each one! I popped in an assortment of buttons that might be fun for some small makes and a package of Kate Spain clothes pins! Sweet! I hope this makes my partner happy!
Nice! Your partner will love it I'm sure.
